Portland Trail Blazers vs. Golden State Warriors

The Warriors continue to light it up this season winning 20 of their first 24 games this season. Not only are the Warriors winning but they are covering the spread at a high rate. The Blazers come to town, likely without both Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum, off a long home stand.

The Warriors are currently 13-2 at home this season. They are also 11-4 ATS at home to go with the fact that the Blazers are 1-10 on the road. There are problems in Portland right now and now there are some injuries to their star players. This is a high spread. The Warriors are expected to win this game by a lot and that is exactly what they have been doing.

Golden State has an average margin of victory at 17 points in 13 home victories. They have been favored by double-digit twice this season, where they are 2-0 ATS. As for Portland, they are a banged up team who is losing games on the road by an average of 14.3 points. The only time Portland covered the spread on the road was during their only victory against a mediocre Houston Rockets’ team.

Not only are McCollum and Lillard unlikely to play, Portland has guys like Anfernee Simons, Cody Zeller, Nassir Little, and Ben McLemore listed as questionable.

Pick: Warriors -15
